Update to the tank: I bought a pair of clowns off a guy. One is a true percula, the other is a perfect picaso. They are already laying eggs together and have been together for 6 months. I also bought some more live rock with zoas and ricordia already on it. Picking it up sunday pics to follow.

Ok so today I picked up a decnet sized green bubble tip anemone for my clowns that I am getting at 10 am. I also picked up a green torch coral. The last pic is a DIY tank cover out of plexiglass and a picture hanger lol. Then there is a tank shot. My wife is visiting family and has our DSLR so there will be better pics coming.

I think that nem is going to need a more established tank to live, unfortunately. It is pretty.

I think that it will be fine my water levels do not fluctuate at all and I am going to feed it real meat food not that cheap fake crap

Anemones tend not to fare well in tanks less than a year old.

They need pristine, stable water conditions to thrive, and new tanks just dont have that. It looks good now, but you will go through the various algae phases and that indicates that your water is less than perfect.
They also need super high lighting conditions and im not sure you have that either.
Finally, there is absolutely no guarantee that it will host your clowns anyways. The clowns may decide they like another area of the tank better.

here are some pics of new additions. New lighting system 55 LED fixture. 1 snowflake clown, one true percula clown. I new rock with zoas and ricordia. Unfortunately it also has some aiptasia but my peppermint shrimp has been scoping out the rock so hopefully he will eat it all. If not I guess I will be buying some aiptasia x
